The Publications Of The Yorkshire Parish Register Society (Volume Xxix) The Register Of Terrington, Co. York (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789354189883)

Terrington's lives are recorded here. Names waiting to be discovered. A meticulous transcription published originally as part of the Yorkshire Parish Register Society, William Brigg's Register of Terrington brings together the parish's baptism, marriage and burial entries across decades. As a genealogy resource book it offers the primary material family history research depends upon: names, dates and local notations that allow relationships to be reconstructed and small stories to be placed on a calendar. These historical church records are indispensable for anyone tracing ancestry in Victorian England, and for readers drawn to the texture of everyday life preserved in English parish archives. The register functions both as a practical ancestry tracing guide and as a local history reference: unadorned entries that, when assembled, map naming patterns, seasonal rhythms and the quiet persistence of community. As part of the wider corpus of Yorkshire parish registers, this volume gathers baptism, marriage and burial records that are otherwise scattered across parish and county holdings, making them straightforward to consult for both the casual reader and the committed genealogist. Used alone or alongside material at the York County Archives, it helps confirm dates and place names central to family history research. Catalogued within the Parish Register Society collection and acknowledged in the British genealogy compendium of county sources, Brigg's register has long been a source for York County Archives and for social historians working with Victorian England records. Its significance is archival rather than rhetorical - the book preserves primary documentation that supports biographies, neighbourhood studies and meticulous family history research. It also aids those studying social change: naming fashions, demographic shifts and seasonal labour patterns can be read across successive entries. Accessible to casual readers who enjoy local history and to classic-literature collectors who prize provenance, this edition bridges research and collecting. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
